Tamron introduces 2 new lenses for Nikon users
By Tyler | May 15, 2008
Tamron has continued its process of adding in-lens motors to its Nikon-mount lenses, with its 28-75mm f/2.8 being the latest recipient. This makes the lens fully compatible with the Nikon D40, D40x and D60, offering their owners fields of view equivalent to a 42-112.5mm lens (in FX/35mm terms). The magnificently named ‘SP AF28-75mm F/2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) MACRO’ can focus as close as 33cm throughout its zoom range.
As well as adding motors to its existing lenses, Tamron has also started building motors into its new Nikon-compatible lenses. The 28-300mm f/3.5-6.3 VC lens offers a 10.7x zoom range with the company’s proprietary optical stabilization system. DX-format users get fields of view equivalent to 43-465mm (in FX terms)
